I think there's a bigger chance some of the young RBs like Gibbs, Robinson or Achance will have a great year than JT. JT already had a lot of mileage on him when he got to the NFL and injuries has already become an issue. I'm afraid we've seen the best of him at this point. Hope I'm wrong of course. 🤞

I won’t be shocked if a rookie somewhere has a breakout year as well. It happens quite often.

Sure, but he had nearly 1000 carries coming into the league. He had nearly 400 more carries than Bijan Robinson in college. That's A LOT of extra mileage in 3 years.

 

Also, those ypc include 2021 - his best season by far. JT has been good in 2022 and 2023, but nowhere near his 2021 level and he hasn't played a full season since.

And we haven't had a QB that can stretch the field since Wentz.  I think barring injuries JT will have a great year.

OOooh nice!! I've heard of this guy. Don't be surprised if he makes the 53 or the practice squad at worst.

 

Great under the radar signing. Can't wait to watch him in preseason!

 

He's still only 24, so he has a lot of potential to carve out a career in the NFL.

Let's hope so and let's hope he stays healthy.

He didn't play in the regular season last year, but he dominated in the preseason before getting hurt. Got 10 tackles and a sack in limited time. Undrafted player from a small school.

Two observations from today that haven’t been mentioned;

 

1) Titus Leo absolutely smoked an OT on 1v1 with a Freeney-est spin move. Super bummed he went down… and from the looks of him on the cart, appeared to be season ending Knee.

 

2) they practiced the new kickoff today. My suggestion after watching 4 to 5 of the kick offs being returned to at least the 35 if not 45 yard line is to just kick it in the end zone and let them start at the 30. I think you’re going to see plenty of people break it open for scores if they actually kick it to someone. .

I am surprised Colts fans have anything good to say about Wentz. Gave up what? A first and a third for him? And that didn't even get the Colts a playoff berth for the one season Wentz was there.

 

No one knows yet where Richardson will rise to. But I should as hell wouldn't mention Wentz when talking about him.

Now back to training camp...

 

I don't know about Colts camp today, but it was blazing hot at Ray Nitschke Field at 10:30 this morning. Hopefully tomorrow will be a little less unbearable for us all.

Wow. This is a first for me. I’ve never received such a baseless accusation before. 
 

But hey you do you I guess. Confirming my observation.

Good thing the Colts have a lot depth on the d-line.  They are going to need it

Well clearly I'm not you.   Wentz opened up the run game for JT.  I feel Richardson will help JT exceed the success he had with Wentz.

I was just saying I am surprised Colts fans have positives to say about Wentz. I respect your opinion that you feel he helped Taylor some. I think the last couple years the production dipping a bit was more because of injuries and the contract etc, not really about QB play.

 

I saw every snap Jonathan ever played at Wisconsin, he didn't have great QB play. Good offensive line play will always help Taylor more than anything.

 

I agree Richardson will make the overall offense better.

You’ve been here like 4 days now. Trust me, there’s plenty of hate towards Wentz on this forum. But yes occasionally, the rational people on here will post a positive or two from the Wentz era.

One season is an "era"?😋

I have nothing against Wentz, but don't feel Taylor's best season was in any way because of Wentz. I get a little protective of former Badgers.

 

Again, I do agree with those that feel Richardson will make the overall offense better.

 It took just a few posts for me to wonder why is it here and Ignore is coming soon. Abrasive was well chosen.

To keep this on track; I don't think there's been a lot of positive to say about the Colts QB situation for a good long while now. BUT, there were a few highlights.

• Luck, of course, but that whole thing ended way too soon and in a terrible way.
• Rivers was great here. He lacked the arm strength in the end, but had almost everything else.
• Wentz could have had a year or two more here I feel. He made some bone-headed decisions during the season, but beyond that the offense was decent. The way the season ended ruined any chance for him to stay, of course.

Now we have AR and hopefully he can put any injury concerns to rest and have a great season.

I think one can dislike Wentz but also acknowledge a fact like Wentz could push the ball down the field something Ryan and Gardner struggled with.

I hope he has a good season as well. Now, I don't think he will fare well in week 2, but I do pray he stays healthy all season.

 

Looking forward to seeing him play live in Lambeau.
